Chapter 384 Do you like my little brother? (5500)
After Liang Qingyun’s birthday party ended, Chen Qingrong and his wife drove home.
They ate quite a lot tonight, including lobsters, abalone and other foods, especially Chen Qingrong, who ate a lot of lobsters.
When they were going home, Tang Xiaoru, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but ask him, "When you came to my house before, my parents didn't give you any lobsters to eat. I didn't see you eat them at that time. Why did you eat so much tonight?"
Chen Qingrong laughed dryly while driving, "Maybe I'm too hungry. You know, small pre-meal snacks like macarons really can't fill me up."
"You're such a good eater." Tang Xiaoru pouted and added, "You're a good eater and you're also very capable. Husband, don't be angry when I say this to you. I really feel like you're like an animal."
Chen Qingrong shook his head. "I'm not angry. When a woman says with a happy face that her man is as good at eating and working as an animal, it's obviously a great compliment to the man. Why should I be angry?"
"No, I clearly had a disgusted expression on my face. When did I ever have a happy expression on my face?"
"Oh my, the little brat is shy, so cute."
"..."
Tang Xiaoru had the urge to open the car door and jump out.
At this time, Tang Xiaoru received a call from her mother. It turned out that the old couple had arrived at their house, so Tang Xiaoru said she would go back immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiaoru urged, "Drive faster, my parents are at our house."
Chen Qingrong was a little surprised, "Aunt and uncle are back from their trip? And it's already past ten o'clock in the evening, why are they here so late?"
Tang Xiaoru shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I asked my mom, but she didn't tell me and just told us to get home quickly."
"Okay, I'll speed up then."
"Yeah." Tang Xiaoru nodded, and then said, "Use the speed you always use to sprint before getting the snake."
Chen Qingrong immediately looked serious, "If I really explode that little universe, then this car won't be enough for me to mess with, it will easily fall apart."
"You can brag."
……
Forty minutes later, they finally got home.
After the car was parked in the garage, the couple took the elevator upstairs. As soon as they got out of the elevator, Tang Xiaoru saw her parents standing at the door chatting and laughing.
"Mom and Dad, you're finally back. Chen Qingrong and I missed you so much." Tang Xiaoru happily went over and hugged her parents.
Chen Qingrong also stepped forward and hurriedly called out, "Uncle and aunt, good evening. Did you have a good time out this time?"
"I'm happy, so happy." Lin Yue's face was much rosier than when her mother passed away, and her expression looked much more serious. "We called you back because we want to sleep at your place tonight."
"Do you want to sleep at our house? Okay." Tang Xiaoru didn't ask any more questions, and urged Chen Qingrong, "Hurry up and open the door, you big fool."
"Oh, good."
Chen Qingrong opened the door and welcomed the two elders in.
After entering and changing their shoes, the old couple also explained the reason.
It turned out that they arrived home at around 8:40, but when they got home they found that the servants had gone back to their hometown and they didn't have the keys with them.
After asking, they found out that the servants felt that the old couple had not been at home all the time, so they wanted to go home to see their family, and the old couple couldn't blame them for this.
A servant who lived nearby wanted to deliver the keys overnight, but the old couple refused. They didn't go to the hotel to get a room, but came directly to stay at Tang Xiaoru's place.
After listening to her mother's story, Tang Xiaoru was overjoyed. "I didn't expect it to be like this. Mom, then you can sleep in Chen Qingrong's bedroom tonight, and we can sleep in the next room."
Tang Chengshan said, "No, no, we can just sleep in the next room. Your aunt Deng will bring the key tomorrow. Your mother and I will only stay here for one night. There's no need to switch rooms with you guys."
"That's fine too." Tang Xiaoru had no choice but to nod.
Lin Yue took her hand again and asked, "Are you and Xiao Chen dating outside so late?"
Tang Xiaoru explained, "No, we went to a friend's birthday party."
"What friends? Close friends?"
"Well, to be more precise, I'm closer to Chen Qingrong." Tang Xiaoru narrated what happened.
After listening, Tang Chengshan looked at Chen Qingrong in surprise, "Xiao Chen, are you good friends with the heir of Haoda Real Estate? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
Chen Qingrong smiled and said, "I knew him when I was a child. At that time, I didn't know his family was so rich and powerful. It was not until our company discussed cooperation with Haoda Real Estate some time ago that I recognized him after seeing him in person."
"So that's how it is." Tang Chengshan said meaningfully, "Then I just need your help with something."
Chen Qingrong immediately said, "Uncle, if you need me to do anything, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I promise I will do anything for you."
Tang Chengshan looked at him and laughed, "It's not that serious. I just hope to use your connection to introduce Liang Qingyun to me. I have an old friend who has always wanted to get in touch with Haoda Real Estate, but the other party is in the real estate industry, and the plate is too big. My old friend can't get close to the core of Haoda Real Estate."
"If you could help me, that would be great."
Chen Qingrong opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Okay, if you're just acting as a middleman, it's a piece of cake for me, but for other things, I may not be able to help."
Tang Chengshan smiled and said, "It's already very good that you can be a middleman."
Tang Xiaoru interrupted at this time, "Dad, which friend of yours is this? Do I know him?"
Tang Chengshan smiled playfully, "Come to think of it, you and Xiao Chen both know each other, that is, your Aunt Lian."
"Is it Aunt Lian?"
Tang Xiaoru was stunned, and then she subconsciously looked at Chen Qingrong.
Chen Qingrong immediately said sensibly, "If it's Aunt Lian, then I will help her even more. Last time, Aunt Lian helped with Ouyang Wanlong's matter. I have always wanted to find an opportunity to repay Aunt Lian. I can take this opportunity to repay her a favor."
Tang Chengshan nodded with satisfaction.
He just likes Chen Qingrong's sensible look.
A crying child gets milk, and a sensible man is liked by his father-in-law.
……
Before going to bed at night, the family of four took a bath one by one.
It was a big project for four people to take a shower one after another. By the time the water heater was completely turned off, it was already past one in the morning.
After saying goodnight to the old couple, they went to their respective bedrooms to rest.
"Um, Xiaoru." Lin Yue suddenly called out to Tang Xiaoru.
Tang Xiaoru was stunned, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Lin Yue dragged her to the kitchen and asked in a low voice, somewhat embarrassedly, "Um, the one you and Xiao Chen used, do you still have it?"
Tang Xiaoru looked confused, "What did Chen Qingrong and I use?"
Lin Yue moved her mouth and said, "Yes, family planning supplies."
When Tang Xiaoru heard this, her eyes widened, and she lowered her voice and said in disbelief, "Mom, do you and my dad still need it now?"
Lin Yue's face turned red. She coughed and said softly, "Ahem, the more middle-aged a couple is, the more they need to maintain their love from time to time, otherwise they will get tired of it after a while. You don't want me to kiss your dad and other middle-aged couples, and you will tremble in your dreams, right?"
Tang Xiaoru had a strange expression on her face. She was silent for a few seconds before she said, "I, I'll get it for you. Wait for me."
"Ahem, um."
Tang Xiaoru walked into the bedroom, and came back soon. Like a spy meeting, she stuffed something into her mother's palm.
"Okay, let's go back and rest."
Lin Yue pretended nothing had happened and put the right hand holding the elf into her pocket.
Tang Xiaoru didn’t know what to say, so she just said “oh” and went back to her room to sleep.
"You're back." Chen Qingrong saw her come in and asked curiously, "You just came in, looked for something in the cabinet, and then went out again. What on earth did you do?"
Squeak.
Tang Xiaoru closed the door first, then took off her slippers and got into bed. Chen Qingrong took the opportunity to lift the quilt and welcomed Tang Xiaoru's soft body to crawl in.
"Looking for that one for my mom."
"what?"
"That's right, the one you don't like to use." Tang Xiaoru smacked her lips and finally chose to tell Chen Qingrong.
After all, Chen Qingrong is the closest person to her in this world besides her parents, and she feels that there is nothing that should be hidden from Chen Qingrong.
Chen Qingrong was stunned for a moment, but after meeting her ambiguous look, he suddenly reacted.
"My father-in-law and his family are so old, and still..." Chen Qingrong felt embarrassed to continue.
Tang Xiaoru hugged him and muttered, "I'm a little surprised, but this also shows that they have a good relationship. This is a good thing, right?"
Chen Qingrong smiled and nodded, "It's definitely a good thing. We Chinese are just too reserved and shy in this regard. Actually, if you think about it, there's nothing to be embarrassed about saying it openly. We're all adults, after all."
"I still feel a little embarrassed to say it." Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes, lifted Chen Qingrong's clothes with her little hands, and drew circles on his belly. "If it was anyone else, it would be fine, but when it comes to my own parents, I feel, how should I put it, I can understand it, and I'm even very fortunate, but I just feel weird." Chen Qingrong narrowed his eyes, "You're not worried that your parents will give you a brother or sister, are you?"
Tang Xiaoru shook her head decisively, "I'm not worried about this, it's just that it's hard to explain."
After a pause, she asked, "Hubby, if this happened to your parents, what would you think?"
Chen Qingrong thought for a while before saying, "I really hope they can give me a brother or sister."
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, frankly speaking, only children are really lonely. Do you feel this way? Especially during the Chinese New Year and other holidays, families with many children are very lively, but if you are an only child, it is very lonely with just the three of you."
"Eh, I really haven't thought about it that way." Tang Xiaoru smiled, "But I did want a younger brother when I was a kid."
Chen Qingrong said, "I am the exact opposite of you. I want a sister."
"Do you think my sister is good?"
"Yeah." Chen Qingrong said shamelessly, "If I had a sister, I would convince her to date a rich man. When she brings her rich brother-in-law home, I can get a big red envelope, and I won't have to worry about money when I get married."
Tang Xiaoru was speechless, "Don't you men all hate women who support their brothers?"
Chen Qingrong said shamelessly, "Yes, it's annoying, but we men don't hate being the brother who gets helped."
"Double standards." Tang Xiaoru glared at him in dissatisfaction, "Fortunately you don't have a sister, otherwise I would feel sad for your future brother-in-law."
Chen Qin Gongrong hugged her tightly at this time and asked tentatively, "Baby, you are one year older than me. If I call you sister, you won't be offended, right?"
"No, why don't you try to scream?"
"Sister~"
Chen Qingrong called out in a coquettish voice and winked at Tang Xiaoru.
Tang Xiaoru, "..."
Three seconds later, she punched Chen Qingrong in the stomach.
"I make you disgust me, I make you disgust me, I'll beat you up!"
"Stop, stop, stop first. Don't you think it's cute to have a little puppy brother like me? I can even burp."
"Little puppy brother..."
Tang Xiaoru's mouth twitched. This time she didn't use her fist. Instead, she took it out directly with her hand and then pinched it lightly with her fingernails.
"Hiss, it hurts, it hurts!" Chen Qingrong was about to cry, "You are crazy, if you want to castrate me, at least use a knife, let go quickly, don't pinch me, otherwise my meridians will be cut off by you, and our Chen family will be extinct."
"It's not that exaggerated." Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him charmingly and began to knead dough again, coaxing him, "It doesn't hurt anymore, does it? It doesn't hurt anymore, does it?"
"Well, that's better."
"So, uh, why do I feel like I touched snot? Are you, huh?"
……
The night passed like this.
After getting up early the next morning, the young couple walked out of the bedroom and saw the old couple also walking out, looking refreshed.
"Good morning, Mom and Dad."
"Uncle and aunt, wake up."
The young couple greeted each other quickly.
"Um, why did you get up so early?" Lin Yue tidied her hair and asked curiously.
Tang Xiaoru hugged her arm and said, "Have you forgotten that Chen Qingrong and I still have to go to work at the company? By the way, Mom, do you want to go out with us later?"
Lin Yue explained, "Let's leave later. Your Aunt Deng's child has a fever and may arrive later. Your father and I will stay here and wait for the call. By the way, we will clean up the house for you."
Tang Xiaoru was so touched, "Thank you, Mom, thank you, Dad, you are so kind. Remember to help us wash the clothes and mop the floor. I love you."
"You're asking for more, aren't you?" Lin Yue was both angry and amused.
After Chen Qingrong and his friends washed up at home, they changed into their usual work clothes and went out.
It was already 8:40 in the morning when they arrived at the company. After parking the car, the couple bought breakfast downstairs of the company.
"Good morning, Mr. Chen, good morning, Mr. Tang."
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Tang, you just arrived too."
I met a few employees buying breakfast and greeted them politely.
Chen Qingrong generously said, "What a coincidence, buy whatever you want to eat, it's my treat."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen."
"Mr. Chen is generous and in good health!"
Several employees said noisily.
After they took their breakfast and left, Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at Chen Qingrong and said, "Why are you pretending to be such a rich guy? Really."
Chen Qingrong chuckled and said, "Breakfast doesn't cost much. I'm trying to win people's hearts. By the way, honey, which one do you want? Pancake or something else?"
"I eat whatever you eat."
"to make."
Chen Qingrong went to the stall and asked the boss for two servings of pancakes. Tang Xiaoru's portion was added with an extra portion of crispy crust, while his own portion was added with spicy strips and ham sausage.
For Chen Qingrong, a pancake is incomplete without spicy strips and ham sausage.
"Let's go upstairs." Chen Qingrong took the pancake handed to him by the boss and urged Tang Xiaoru.
Tang Xiaoru saw something at this time, reached out and patted his arm, pointed, "Here."
Chen Qingrong looked in the direction of her finger and was stunned.
I saw a red sports car parked on the opposite side of the road. Xiaoyuan quickly ran out of the car, turned around and said something to the people in the car, then ran towards this side with a briefcase.
Chen Qingrong smiled playfully, "If I'm not mistaken, that should be Liang Qingyun's car, right? It seems that they had a very romantic night last night."
Tang Xiaoru touched her chin and said, "That means Xiaoyuan has been taken over by Mr. Liang?"
"That should be the case." Chen Qingrong was not sure, but he still said, "Liang Qingyun is handsome and has a good family background. He is also so proactive towards her. There shouldn't be many girls who can refuse such an offensive."
"Little round!"
When he saw Xiaoyuan running over, he shouted.
Xiaoyuan paused, and when she saw them, an embarrassed look appeared on her face. Then she walked over in two steps.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Tang, good morning." She said haltingly.
Chen Qingrong pretended to be confused and said, "Xiaoyuan, you are so rude. Liang Qingyun specially invited you to his birthday party last night. How could you stand him up?"
Xiao Yuan quickly said, "I didn't stand him up. I went there last night. I, I even sent you a WeChat message. Did you forget?"
"Is that true?" Chen Qingrong scratched his head and continued, "You said you went last night, but why didn't I see you? On the contrary, Liang Qingyun was very disappointed because you didn't come. He got drunk and even hugged me and cried for a long time."
"No, I set off fireworks with him in the park last night, we..."
The little round mouth was faster than his brain and he blurted out the words without thinking. Halfway through the words, he suddenly realized that he had been fooled.
Because she saw Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru staring at her with evil smiles like villains.
"Go on." Chen Qingrong chuckled, "What did you do after setting off the fireworks? You took him home, right?"
Xiaoyuan's body temperature suddenly rose from degrees to 40 degrees. Not only her cheeks, but her entire body was hot, and her heart was beating violently as if it was overloaded.
"I, I, I..."
She stammered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Tang Xiaoru hit Chen Qingrong on the shoulder and rolled her eyes at him before helping Xiaoyuan out. "Xiaoyuan, go back to work and ignore Chen Qingrong. He mistook soap for toothpaste when he was brushing his teeth this morning and it damaged his brain."
Chen Qingrong, "???"
Why are you making personal attacks?
After arriving at the company, I started to get busy.
Just around noon, an uninvited guest suddenly came to Chen Tangguan Design Co., Ltd.
"Mr. Chen, excuse me."
"Why are you here?" Chen Qingrong raised his head and looked towards the door, and was stunned.
